Doesn't quite live up to the hype (or to the trailer)..

Rating: 7/10 (8 November 2002)

I was expecting something like Resident Evil, but it's much more similar to The Quiet Earth. I can't help wondering where the $15 million went? I know it's not a lot for a film, but this really looks like a $3 million TV drama.
Positives: Pretty good cast/acting. The script isn't awful. And I did like the 'global' twist towards the end. The zombie/"infected" make-up & special effects are fine.
Negatives: the deserted London scenes weren't as eerie as I'd expected (if you've ever done a milk or paper-round, you'll have seen the same). Outrageous product placement ALL THE TIME. Given the choice of any vehicle you like, would you choose that!? Slightly feminist (extremely negative) take on human/male nature towards the end, which could have been balanced better.
Not a bad film, but not what I was after. And David Schneider (although decent as an actor/comedian) has such a comedy face, it shatters the dramatic atmosphere from the beginning.
